    You're asking them to threshold brake based on line noise? There is no signal there to be felt.

    Well, I'm claiming there is, but it's faint, and it can be seen on the FFB meter. If you're insensitive, using gloves and holding very tightly, or using smoothing (interpolation) or way too little FFB strength, you might not feel it.

    In ABS cars, I just slam the brakes. In cars with no ABS, I have zero issues threshold braking competitively without practice and without sound.

    With that said, I wouldn't mind them adding a possibility to add another canned effect. I won't use canned effects since they're just distracting to me, but if others find them useful it's great!

    The only brake feedback is a very small about of brake disc wobble. If you want grip information, or lock ups and such you need shakers or vibration motors. It was a design decision not to add these effects into FFB. I doubt that's going to change now.

    I got a Fanatec wheel with vibration motors, but the lockup and wheel spin options in Fanalab aren't available in Raceroom. Is that something that's even sent telemetry wise from Raceroom? Or have Fanatec simply not implemented it?

    I don't know how fanatec stuff works but all the information is there and available to use. I have it through simhub. @Andi Goodwin may be able to help you re fanatec
